the term “cake day” just makes me think of r*ddit. I’ve seen Lemon Day going around, but we probably want to avoid affiliation with lemon party.
not that we can tell anybody what to do anyway, and each instance could even have its own. anyway, it needs to be something that obviously means “anniversary” and doesn’t require explanation otherwise it’ll just be annoying
Happy Bean Day
We call it a redditism and we fucking move on.
so we say “Happy redditism”?
I think he meant that “cake day” is a redditism
I think we just don’t call it.
The people who like that kind of stuff can acknowledge it if they want
cake day is a colloquial term that means birthday.
it’s not invented by or for reddit.also being reminded of reddit isn’t something to avoid; you can survive. it’s just a website. be normal.edit: it seems like it was probably coined for reddit, but I know it also means birthday now. even if it didn’t who gives a shit, the rest of my comment stands.
I think nothing is fine. Or narwhal bacon day for people who just can’t let go of reddit.
I keep asking people for examples of cake day being used before Reddit
you know what good point, i guess i was familiar with the term before i was familiar with reddit so I made the wrong assumption. still the rest of what i said is true: it doesn’t matter.
if it didn’t matter you wouldn’t have an opinion on it lol
so if someone asks a question you literally cannot say that it doesn’t matter, because in saying so you’ll have formed an opinion on it? that’s ridiculous.
you just gave the definition of having an opinion. I don’t know who you should be angry at about that but it certainly isn’t me
I’m not sure you’re understanding what I’m saying. but more importantly I’m not sure you’re understanding what you’re saying.
all I see is somebody still having a conversation 11 hours later about how little they have an opinion on something
Cake day.
Stop hating. Hating sucks.
I mean for some this is Lemmy for others this is Jarboa either way it’s a rodent therefore it may as well be cheese day 🧀
Although this would require agreement of most members of this free world app since some people are chees intolerant
explain the jarboa thing?
Jerboa is the official mobile app for Lemmy.
A lemming is a type of rodent, and so is a jerboa.
Android app made by the lemmy team is named jerboa
Rat day
Groundhog’s Day.
waitaminute…
Groundhog’s Day.
waitaminute…
But for some it is Mastodon or Mbin or PieFed or whatever. It shouldn’t be specific to lemmy.
I kinda like cheese day
There are normal cheeses, there are lactose free cheeses and vegan cheeses as well. I think that’s all possible bases covered? Beside, cheese is delicious (I have yet to have a delicious vegan cheese but I’m told they exist - probably didn’t get here yet or too pricey for me - but that’s beside the point :D).
I vote cheese day, your logic is bullet proof.
And even if it isn’t, then you’ll have Swiss cheese.
Excising yourself from bourgeois social media day just doesn’t have a good ring to it.
I’ve wished people a happy accountiversary before
I thought accountiversary was another name for tax day
we’re going to need sub-names for people’s alts as well
“The anniversary of you joining Lemmy”
Lemmiversary
we need to take cake day back. fuck reddit
I like the attitude but I never liked the term in the first place
So?
so I made this post.
We don’t need a cake day.
Cake day is nice, maybe think that reddit can’t have it.
Happy canal exit day!
Lie day?
I think we should normalise sharing your actual birthday, and while we’re at it also share what street you grew up on, and your mother’s maiden name
And your first pet’s name, and your social security number
Yeah, we want to be authentic, right?

I’m down with this.
Fucking pie, hell yeah
That’s March 14th, Albert Einstein’s birthday. But I don’t celebrate that, because I’m a Tauist.
